[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 355364, member: 434"] I wouldn't think it would be covered under YES anymore than brake pads would be covered. They're a designed wear item...and 136K is very good for a life of service. Since you single-handedly have the highest mileage FJR to exist...you're crossing into that zone that many BMW riders are....the life of extended service. Things like this, bushings, brake lines if they were the stock ones, cylinders, seals, etc. are going to be more questionable as Flipper matures and grows gray hai....skin I guess. It's up to you to predict these things and replace them before they fail.....like in the middle of a rally. In fact, maybe it would be prudent at the next rally to saddle up to a BMW wrench head with a 200K+ bike and say, "So, we both have bikes that last forever. What did you do around the 150K mark yourself?" The look would be priceless for sure. ;) [/QUOTE]
